But no way in hell Claptrap losing to that uber fodder

Hey folks, do you think we will be seeing sprite Kefka in this contest? Always wanted to see FFVI put good numbers.

Provided he doesn't pull a Kefka and somewhere falls in last place next round, there's a 99.9% chance we'll get sprite Kefka.

How was Frog winning such a statistical upset?

and Lugia destroys Lucario with ease at the very LEAST. Lucario bombing in his Contest debut will never leave my memory.

So do I. I didn't know he was so weak when I made my bracket.

I think there is a slight off chance that Ridley wins, considering SBD will probably be a non-factor.

Interested in the next two matches because I pulled the trigger on Squirtle>Dante.

SuperNiceDog won the Guru contest super nicely!

This match is on pace to get under 23000 votes. Would that give it the lowest votals so far?

Yes, it would be the lowest of the contest. Even worse than the Big Boss match.

still waiting for the sub-20k match
(yes I know that's unlikely)

In several minutes from now, we will have our 1000th contest match of all-time. Prior to this contest, we had a total of 960 contest matches (including Link/Jay Solano and the other bonus matches).

Dante/Laharl/Raz will be our 1000th contest match.

I pwn you all!

Ummm... Laharl's cutting.

EDIT: That didn't last long at all.

I was expecting Lugia to have a better prediction percentage there!

also what's up with Disgaea characters doing OK first Prinny and now Laharl ? didn't Disgaea lose to Valkyria Chronicles in the games contest?
---
...

proof that pissing off most of a series fanbase isn't a good idea. I wonder if Samus will be similar.

Yeah this is atrocious, he may improve a little but if he came up against say, a well-known character people care about, from a popular franchise, with retro appeal - I think he would get beaten easily. And Squirtle's up next!

~Zen

That's good to know, because I picked Squirtle over Dante without thinking.

But yeah, if Squirtle does poor to tomorrow as well, Dante vs Squirtle would be an awesome fight.

oh wow I also picked Squirtle over Dante without thinking. Phew!

~Zen

Isn't Laharl the only non-joke character that appears every year and is even weaker and pathetic than Jak?

If there is a DMC picture and a sunglasses Squirtle,Squirtle wins for sure.So I suggest we have a normal Dante picture and a normal Squirtle picture.

Laharl lost to Hogger that one time

He's not TERRIBLE. He's below the fodder line but performs well enough that we don't complain about having him back.

After 39 matches, the final perfect bracket has fallen. All the -1 (37 points) get the match right but there's a odd blip where the -2s (36 points) do noticibly worse on the match compared to the -3s (35 points). Despite being a one sided battle, the middle tiers have a lot of trouble with this match. This is actually pretty similar to Frog's match. The top tiers do much better than the middle tiers and once again there's that sharp decline in prediction percentage around the -4 (34 points) to -7 (31 points) range. THe last 0 bracket lives on, but for how much longer?

8 people fell off the Top 49. adam_jannetta, Claude925, Defiant_One, eliteking727, ElsaStegosaurus, Honedge, LOZLTTP and nesspoojeff did not have Lugia winning.

1 person got it wrong and survived. Former first place and the last perfect bracket to go down isNotPerfect also did not have Lugia winning.

Don't forget that Laharl is overrated by those stats. Those are SFF-adjusted because of the beatdown Mario got from Link, but they should have been left alone (at best) because Charizard's bandwagon really causes everyone in his quarter (including Laharl) to be pretty overrates.

Squirtle was pretty much always winning, unfortunately. I based my bracket on Squirtle being pretty strong, not quite as Charizard's level but close enough to it that he can beat Dante.
